Re: Coming out to family but not to other family

This is what I'm afraid of. It is just getting hard to hide it. It keeps coming up in random conversations with strangers or with people like my hairdresser. It feels like I can't be me? And especially now since I've got a serious crush on a girl.

Totally understandable. You're ready to come out, but your parents aren't ready to deal with it and my impression is you're not sure they will ever be. My suggestion is to find people to talk about this online, anonymously. Lots of people are in the same boat and having a good support network makes a difference.

Unfortunately, the price of being open and being yourself is risking your parents' anger and if you have to be honest with yourself about whether or not you can afford to pay that price. Ut sounds like they already resent you (and have let you feel that resentment) for really basic, reasonable stuff like needing a place to live and financial support while you're finishing school and establishing a career. That's a bad sign that they're highly unlikely to be reasonable about their daughter coming out.
